Maruaroa Maroro o ngā Hiahia Eke
Ko te maruaroa āhuatanga o ngā taputapu kōhungahunga kounga mō te kāinga e tuku ana i te whanaketanga me ngā hiahia a te whānau, nō reira he whakawhitinga roa tino māia mō te kāinga katoa. Ko te aronga hihiri nei ka kitea ko ngā hiahia whanaketanga a ngā tamariki, ngā here whenua, me ngā aronga mahi e rerekē haere ana, nō reira e hiahiatia ana ngā raihana taputapu e taea ai te huri, te whakarerekē anō i te mea kaore e hiahiatia te whakakapi tōtō. Mā ngā wae tapa ka taea e ngā mātua, ngā kaitiaki hoki te hanga i ētahi atamira rūma hou, āhuatanga rerekē anō mā te whakarere, te whakapīra, i te whakauru i ngā wae kotahi ki ngā āhuatanga hou. He mea nui tēnei maruaroa ina huri ana i te tiaki pēpi ki ngā mahi tamaiti, kātahi ki ngā taiao ako kōhanga kōhungahunga, kātahi ki ngā wāhi mahi kura. Ko ngā tikanga hononga e whakamahia ana i ngā taputapu kōhungahunga ā-wae e whakamahi ana i ngā tikanga hono matatau hei whakarite kia pakari te hononga engari ka taea te whakarerekē anō māmā, kāore he taputapu, kāore he pūkenga motuhake. E mau tonu ana te kaha o ngā taputapu ahakoa te āhuatanga e whakarārangitia ana, e tuku ana i te haumātaotao me te pakari i ngā āhuatanga katoa. Ka hāngai ngā raihana puoroheke i roto i ngā hoahoa ā-wae ki ngā hiahia herehere e huri haere ana, mā ngā tapa tōpapatia, ngā pouaka tangohia, ngā wā kōluke hoki e taea ai te pupuri i ngā mea katoa mai i ngā huarahi pēpi ki ngā taputapu toi, ki ngā pukapuka, ki ngā rauemi ako. Ko te whai hua o te wāhi e pa ana ki te maruaroa ā-wae ka nui ake ina iti noa ngā kāinga, ngā rūma aniania hoki me ngā taputapu e hiahiatia ana kia mahi anō i ētahi atamira i te rā katoa. Ka taea te nuku anō i ngā wae ki te waihanga wāhi takotoranga, kātahi ka hui anō mā ngā mahi whakaritenga, ngā akoranga rānei. Ka torotoro ake tēnei maruaroa ki ngā wā tuarangi, ki ngā hui hoki, mā te whakarerekē anō i ngā taputapu kōhungahunga ā-wae e taea ai te tautoko i ngā rōpū rerekē, i ngā mahi rerekē anō. Kāore e taea te whakamātau i te uara roa o te maruaroa ā-wae, nā te mea ka peka ngā whānau i ngā utu, i te para parae hoki e hua ana i te hoko i ngā taputapu hou ina paku ake ngā tamariki i ngā tauturanga tawhito, nō reira he whakawhitinga ekonomiki, ātaahua anō hoki.
